i've written CDs when compiling a kernel.  this wasn't really production
stuff, just testing.  mainly on CD-RWs, but when that worked, i tried on
CD-R also.  i didn't have problems.  but i was only writing at 4X.

at the time i was doing this on a 667Mhz PIII with 256MB.  

i wouldn't be surprised if Doc starts getting buffer problems though
when running at 32x :).  i say test with a CD-RW and tell the world
if it works :).
